Trump or Harris? The odds of the former president making a comeback or the Vice President stepping to the top spot are equal – and this uncertainty means lots of price action. Live coverage of the results as they come in + all the market reactions.

US Elections have impact on tariffs, taxes and more
Former President Donald Trump wants to slap tariffs on China and everyone else – and that scares markets. But, if his Republican Party gains control of Congress, tax cuts are on the cards, and markets love it.
Vice President Kamala Harris promises spending on affordable housing and other programs, but needs Congress to follow though. Without a Democratic sweep, it will be more of the same – which is not a bad prospect for markets.
Various opinion polls show a tight race in all seven swing states: Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin, North Carolina, Georgia, Arizona and Nevada. We will follow the results as they trickle in.
